Stewed Wool for Fool.

we have all had our svmpathies
aroused by statements that these peo-
PIE tine natives of Northern Siberia)
are often during famines compelled to
resort to wood for food. Now, the
TACT is that careless observers have
SIMPLY been imposed upon, or they
nave jumped at conclusions without
caring, or perhaps being able, to make
inquiries, and because they Thought
that statement of these views would
MAKE n heart-rending page for their
DOCKS, and by inference show what a
distressing time they themselves must
nave had among such surroundings.

except in few sheltered valleys. il
may be said there is no other wood
than the larch, and for miles south of
the free limit absolutely no other. The
natives eat it because they like it.
Even when fish are plentiful it usually
forms part OF the evening meal, as the
many clearly stripped larch logs near
every hut testify. They know by ex-
perience that the fact OF their eating
wood arouses the sympathies of stran
gers, and shrewdly use it to excite pity
and to obtain n gift of tea and toba co.
They scrape off the thick layers imme-
diately under tho log, and, chopping it
fine, mix it with snow. 1t is then
boiled in n kettle. Sometimes n little

Gathering In the Lambs.

Little P is learning a great deal
at Sunday school now. The figure of the
shepherd folding his lambs in his bosom
has particularly impressed his childish
imagination, and his tendency to recur
TO IL in conversation was accepted as
proof that his lessons were sink NO
deep into his heart.
do you know how the shepherd puts
his lambs in his bosom?" he asked his
sister.
=, Why, yes, F." said she, che just takes
them and puts them there"
But he has TO kill 'em, and cook 'em
first said little P.
Cook them?"
"Yes, and he eats 'em, and then ne
has 'em in his bosoml"
And the boy stroked his chest and
stomach downward in n way that left
no room to doubt his full appreciation
Of his own theory as to the proper way
10 gather lambs into ones bosom.

Parade Of Troops in Washington.

Washington Special: The parade OF the
troops for review by the president has al
fOrded the first opportunity for seeing at
once the entire body OF those forming the
EnCampmcnt and was an unqualified sue
cess. The arrangements for the parade
were seasOnabIy completed, and were car
Cied out almost to the allotted
second, and without an apparent
hitch or break. The head of the
column started from the camp on Seven
teeuth street promptly at noon, and
reached the stand erected for the president
and invited guests ten minutes later. The
reviewing stand had seats for nearly three
hundred persons, and was we'll filled with
out crow ling. With the president were
Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Welsh, Mrs. Marcy and
COL and Mrs. Lamont, Gen. Sheridan
and several members Of his staff, in full
uniform, were their escorts. Among tho
guests OF the drill were Gov. Lee of Virginia
and staff, and Gov. McGill OF Linnesota
and staff, and staff Of Gov. Gray of Ind
lana the governor himself having been de-
tanned at the last moment, Secretary Endi-
rOtt, Senator Sherman and German, the
Mexi can and Chinese ministers and ladies Of
their families, and II liberal sprnkling of
other legations and army people. The
stand was covered with bunting and stood
beneath the shade Of the lofty trees which
front the White House grounds. When
the right OF the column approached the
president stepped upon the dais and in re-
sponse to the salutes OF the passing COM
mands he removed his hat and bowed.

The earth contains something Of
value besides coal, petroleum and
gas. The production of gold in this
country during the year 1886 is es-
timated at $50, 900, 900, and that OF
silver at s51, 100000. The total
amount of silver taken out OF the old
bali in 1856 in all countries was OF a
value OF Sl24, 100000. The report
ofthe Director of the Mint shows that
Colorado still leads among the States
OF the American Union in the produc.

The Massachusetts supreme court
has rendered an important decision
on the rights Of naturalized citizens,
It holds that the law Of the state
which provides that mo person here.
after naturalized in any court shall
be entitled to be registered as q voter
within thirty days Of such naturaiiza-
tion," is unconstitutional and void.
An action for damages was brought
by foreign-born citizen against the
registers Id Cambridge for refusing tc
register him. on the ground that thir
ty days had not elapsed since he was
naturalized. Thesupreme court holds
that naturalized citizen has equal
right in voting with native-born citi

authority to subject him to special
delay not inflicted on native.born
citizen.
